They didn't make many concessions because the kids situation, but helped us help each student to do the very best they could. That was and is our policy. We ask each kid to do their personal best no matter the outcome. We can proudly say that with the help of staff and teachers we successfully helped 42 kids since 2001. Can't say enough good things about this high school.

All I need to say is, where was this school when I was growing up? It would have kept me out of trouble and focused. Even my kids that have grown up in the area asked how come it wasn't existent when they were in school. The coaches are A1. The staff is nice as well. I also heard that in the near future they're looking to get a new training facility. I can't wait to see that and what the future holds for this academy. Best of luck!

Multiple performances at the school campus and around the community. My son learned how to play the Chinese yoyo, do kung-fu, and experience native chinese foods during cultural holiday celebrations. I'm truly glad we took the leap and enrolled our kids at Riverview International Academy.

I have two kids in 1st & 5th grade mandarin immersion program. They learned so much at school and the teachers are so great!

Learning a second language from a free public school is a very rare opportunity here in San Diego. Not a lot of schools offer this. They also have Spanish immersion program. I recommend this school!

Serious Concerns Regarding Student Safety and Administrative Negligence…read more As a concerned parent, I feel it is necessary to raise serious concerns regarding the ongoing lack of safety protocols and administrative accountability at this school, where my child is currently enrolled. Over the past several months, I have witnessed and documented several troubling incidents involving not only negligence on the part of the administration but also potential endangerment of students. These include: Failure to Vet Adults on Campus: The school has allowed unauthorized adults onto school grounds without conducting proper identification or verification procedures. This has resulted in individuals misrepresenting themselves as parents and engaging in inappropriate behavior, including bullying and harassment of students and other parents. Bullying and Harassment: The school has failed to take adequate steps to prevent or address bullying. Specific individuals, including adults, have repeatedly harassed students, with incidents involving verbal threats and coercion. Despite being verbally banned from campus, these individuals were still allowed to return and continue their behavior without consequence. Involvement of Firearms: There was a reported incident involving firearms on or near school grounds, tied to individuals previously reported for misconduct. This incident was not transparently addressed with the school community, and no apparent disciplinary or legal action was taken against those responsible. Neglect of Mandated Reporting Duties: Concerns have been raised with the school about potential neglect and emotional abuse of students, including my own child. Despite these concerns being reported, the school has failed to follow up or escalate them to Child Protective Services, as required by law under mandatory reporting obligations. Lack of Transparency and Cooperation: As a legal parent, I have been repeatedly denied access to basic information such as incident reports or the opportunity to safely communicate with my child on campus. This has occurred despite involving law enforcement and having legal rights in place. Allegations made by another parent were accepted without proper investigation or due process, leading to further barriers in my involvement with my child's education and well-being. Failure to Uphold Protective Orders: The school has not enforced protective measures that are in place to safeguard students and families involved in these conflicts, further putting children at risk. Pattern of Unsafe Environment: There have been multiple incidents requiring law enforcement and school lockdowns. The frequency of such events points to a larger systemic issue in maintaining a safe and secure learning environment. What is most disheartening is that the administration appears more focused on maintaining the school's public image than protecting the students and addressing serious safety concerns. The failure to act responsibly and transparently has significantly eroded trust within the school community. While I do not wish for my child to be removed from their educational setting, it is ultimately the school's responsibility to ensure all students are safe and protected from harm--physically, emotionally, and socially. I urge the district and relevant oversight bodies to thoroughly investigate the current environment at Rolando Elementary and take immediate steps to implement meaningful reform. I have also communicated with a couple of the other parents who have been negatively impacted by the recent turn of events and encouraged them to take these concerns to the board and even take the right legal avenues to hold the school responsible. The safety and well-being of children must be prioritized above all else.

Don't send your innocent young children here…read more My 5yo son was I believe wrongfully removed from school.. He had never experienced pre school and never really had consistent interactions with other kids. So as school started 8/21 he had to be redirected a lot to his station and there were incidences he was struggling with transitions and shows his frustration. There were 3 times he was sent to the office and based on what happened I believe some of those cases the school over reacted. He is 5! And since school started he had been absent 1-2 days each week because he got sick and other days he got sent home. Anyone would agree my son had barely any time to really adjust. The school requested for an IEP assessment from qualified professionals who do these, as well as his pediatrician which I proceed to get set up. The worst is they made us sign a behavior plan saying if things don't get better by 10/3 (document signed 9/19) they will remove him. According to the behavior plan document date - signed by the principal and his teacher SMA provided October 3 as his next review date. Last Thursday 9/27 he was sent to the office and sent home for something I truly believe was not necessary for him to skip the rest of the class. When I picked him up from the office - and on that day during the meeting with the principal and his teacher they reinforced the written Behavior Plan document and told me there can be no further incidents as a "warning". I had kept my home Friday 9/27 to give him some time to reset and start fresh Monday. I got a call from the principal on Friday afternoon 9/27 and she told me in these words "we (her and the diocese) had a meeting and determined that (my son) is not developmentally ready for the school" and they decided he no longer needed to come to school on Monday - she used the words "developmentally ready"... my response was that she (the principal) and the diocese are not qualified to make that assessment. That should be left to the professionals which I set out to make appointments. And if the professionals do conclude that my son is completely normal for his age then that says a lot about the school - this is prejudice. I believe that decision was made in retaliation to the emails I sent on 9/26 to advocate for fairness in disciplinary actions on my son. I requested a meeting to discuss my concerns, and my son was met with removal from school. I am heartbroken for my son and very angry that this school handled this so coldly. I grew up going to a catholic school and believe me there is nothing God loving, compassionate nor kind about the principal running this school.
